Challenge 1 Before & After

Hey guys

I finished challenge 1 today. I'm quite happy with the results, but i'm looking to do even better in C2. I had 3 weeks worth of setbacks, and reckon that made a difference momentum wise. I've learnt a lot in C1 about diet and exercise and reckon im better equipped to tackle C2 and do even better.

I started C1 on June 2 2008 and finished 24 August 2008.

I went from 109kg (240lbs) to 103.4kg (227.5lbs), thats 5.6 kg (12.3lbs) lost.
I lost 11cm around my belly and im measuring body fat this week sometime.
(Keep in mind i weighed 118kg (260lbs) in 2007, so ive lost 15kg (33lbs) over the last year!!!)

My goals were a bit higher than this, but im not too upset that i didnt exactly reach them, im happy to make sure i reach them in challenge 2. I look better, I feel better and I'm motivated to go even higher. The compliments i am receiving from friends and others is very flattering and really motivates me to go for more!

Thats all for now, starting C2 on 1 September 2008.

The before and afters are also on my profile in an album, easier to view!
